Re: I figured out one of my problems, default theme is only used for new users

Your theme preferences will be honored if you don't enable the user themes mechanism. Existing users are switched to the artekopia theme because the database changes drop that in as their default. You can override this by doing a simple database query:

update netjuke_userprefs set 'theme' = 'themename' where 1
update netjuke_sessions set 'theme' = 'themename' where 1

There's not much I can really do to make the default work the way you describe, other than perhaps adding theme selection to the installer and making the query dynamic. I'll look at it and see if I can't clean it up a bit.
